End‐stage renal disease and dialysis in <scp>HIV</scp>‐positive patients: observations from a long‐term cohort study with a follow‐up of 22 years

Abstract

As a result of longer survival, the prevalence of ESRD is increasing but remains associated with a high mortality. The incidence of ESRD declined in Black but not in Caucasian patients. IDU and HCV were identified as additional risk factors for the development of ESRD.
